Ah... then sing in a way that can be understood
ஆடுகிற மாட்ட ஆடி கரடா
பாடுகிற மாட்ட பாடிக்கரக்கணும் டா
Milk a dancing cow by dancing
Milk a singing cow by singing, man
குள்ளக்கத்திரிக்காயே அடிடா டீய
உன்னுடைய சேட்ட தாங்கலையேடா
Hey short eggplant, pour the tea
Can't tolerate your pranks, man
ஆ.. உடுடா ரவுசு இதுவா பெருசு
நண்பா லவ்வு ஜெயிக்கனுன்டா
தனியா இருந்தோம் அனியா சேர்ந்தோம்
அணிலாய் இனிமே உதவிடலாம்
நண்பர்கள் இல்லாமப்போனாலும் ஆகாதுடா ஹ
Ah... show off, is this such a big deal?
Friend, love must win, man
We were alone, now we joined as a team
Like squirrels, let us help from now on
Life won't work out without friends, ha

Hey, wake up our Chennai style beat...
ஹேய் நம்ம மதராடியக் கேளுப்பா
ஹேய் இந்தா ...(8)
Hey take this...(8)
Ngoiyaalo ngoiyaalo
ங்கொய்யாலோ ங்கொய்யாலோ
Because I fell in love at first sight
கண்டவுடன் காதல் பன்னினதால் தான்
நானும் நம்முடைய நட்பு அதுதானே இப்போ
காக்கிச்சட்ட போடப்போட நம்ம பந்தம்
நட்புக்கு நாம கையிகலனும்
Isn't our friendship the reason now?
As we wear the khaki uniform, our bond strengthens
We should lend a hand for friendship
He measured the length of life
வாழ்வின் அளவை அளந்தாறேன்
ஹேய் நட்பின் ஆழம் அளந்தாரா ரா ரா
இங்கே நாமும் இணைவோம் என்று
கடவுள் நம்மைப்படைத்தாரா
சொந்தங்கள் பேசாத விஷயங்கள்
நாம் பேசலாமே
Hey, did he measure the depth of friendship?
That we would unite here
Did God create us for this?
Things that relatives don't talk about
Can we talk about them?

Hey, are you listening to the Thanjavur beat?
I'm telling you, crank up the tempo and hit it!
ஹே தஞ்சாவுரு அடிய கேட்குறியா
கத்துறேன்ல்ல நல்லா ஏத்தி அட்றா
ஆ ஆ ஆ அட்றா அட்றா அதேத்தான்
டொம்மீல்லு டொம்மீல்லு
Ah ah ah hit it, hit it, that's it
Dommeellu dommeellu
If you win here beyond bravery
If you think of your lady, victories come
வீரத்தத்தான்டி இங்க ஜெயிச்சா
அம்மனிய நெனைச்சா வெற்றிகள் வருது
வீரங்கள் என்று இனிமேல் இல்ல
அப்புடியே வந்தா ஏன்டும் மாமு
No more sheer heroism
If it comes like that, handle it, mate
Friend who got trapped in the net of love
Will you enter the police department?
காதல் வளையில சிக்கிய நண்பா
காவல் துறையில் நுழைவாயா
திருமமணமாகி மனைவி வந்தா
எங்கள நெனச்சிப்பார்ப்பியா
ஒரு நாளில் பல நாளை பார்த்தோமே
இது போதுன்டா
Once you get married and your wife arrives
Will you think of us and look back?
We experienced many days packed into a single day
This is enough, man
